Early musical memories

I thought it would be quite interesting to share our earl(y)iest musical memories. What got your attention when you were a child. It might of course have been Elvis, or it might have been pre Elvis, or after.
Growing up in Africa, we had a big old radiogram and some 78s. I remember my mum's brother was a big Gene Autry fan. I wasn't allowed to touch the records in case I broke them.
The first songs I remember are Sugar Bush by Doris Day and Frankie Laine, Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes by Perry Como, and How Much Is That Doggie In The Window by Lita Roza and one I loved, Bimbo by Jim Reeves. So I was around 3 to 4 years old.
